“…Psychologists wishing to understand relations among marginalized groups drew from a variety of social science disciplines, such as political science and urban studies. The past decade has brought increased research on intraminority dynamics (Al Ramiah, Hewstone, Little, & Lang, 2014;Craig, DeHart, Richeson, & Fiedorowicz, 2012;Glasford & Calcagno, 2012;Hindriks et al, 2014;Philip et al, 2010). This work includes qualitative, correlational, and experimental studies across a variety of countries and minority groups.…”

“…As such, intraminority solidarity is an important real-world issue, especially considering the present highly charged political climates around the globe. While the bulk of intergroup relations research focuses on dynamics between majority and minority groups (such as Black-White relations, see Simon, Aufderheide, & Kampmeier, 2001or Philip, Mahalingam, & Sellers, 2010, or multiple equal status groups, a growing body of literature specifically examines dynamics among groups that are marginalized in terms of number, status, power, or resources.…”

Intraminority solidarity: The role of critical consciousness

A central question in the growing field of intraminority relations is how best to promote solidarity among marginalized groups. The current article reviews existing social psychological theories of intraminority relations, with a focus on barriers to, and facilitators of, intraminority solidarity. In particular, we explore the roles of competition and identity threats in eroding solidarity, and examine how similarity perceptions, a common identity of stigma, and structural and historical attributions generate solidarity. We then suggest that critical consciousness, a theory of sociopolitical development prominent in the developmental and community psychology literatures, can integrate disparate findings and extend our understanding of solidarity among marginalized groups. Borrowing from the critical consciousness literature, we outline new theoretical predictions for fostering intraminority solidarity. This exploration furthers existing theoretical work on intraminority solidarity and intergroup relations more broadly.

“…For instance, the more Basque people identify with Spaniards the more negatively they view Catalans as a subgroup that seeks autonomy (Martinovic, Verkuyten, & Weesie, 2011). Still, there is a lack of research on how immigrants and ethnic minority groups perceive and evaluate other minority groups in society (e.g., Hagendoorn, 1995; Philip, Mahalingam, & Sellers, 2010).…”

This article provides a social psychological analysis of immigrants' identification with the country of settlement, that is, their host national identification. We first discuss national (dis)identification in relation to dual identity and religion. Subsequently and drawing on acculturation research and the social identity perspective, we discuss four conditions that can stimulate or hinder the development of national identification: sociostructural circumstances, perceived discrimination, identity undermining, and in-group norms. Furthermore, we underline the relevance of studying two largely unexplored yet important consequences of immigrants' national identification: the evaluations of other minority groups and political involvement. We conclude by recognizing the value of a dual identity and by proposing a number of policies that might facilitate its development. We also discuss the obstacles toward the creation of a harmonious dual identity. These obstacles are related to the way in which the national category is defined and to the four conditions mentioned.On June 13, 1998, President Clinton held a speech on diversity at Portland State University. After his introductory comments he stated "Today I want to talk about what may be the most important subject of all, how we can strengthen the bonds of our national community as we grow more racially and ethnically diverse." The continuing worldwide migration and the increased tensions after, for example, 9/11 and the bombings in London and Madrid have made this "most important subject of all" even more important. In the United States, there is a strong debate on migration and immigration policies and increasingly also about the position of Muslim citizens. In Europe, government leaders such as Cameron, Merkel, and Sarkozy have declared that multicultural policies have failed.

“…These studies predominantly focus on how majority groups evaluate ethnic and racial minorities. There are also some studies that examine the attitudes of minorities toward the majority, and there are a few studies that investigate inter-minority relations (e.g., Philip, Mahalingam, & Sellers, 2010;White, Schmitt, & Langer, 2006). However, there is very little research on different subgroups within a shared social category, and in relation to religion in particular (Verkuyten & Yildiz, 2009).…”

Identity Practices, Ingroup Projection, and the Evaluation of Subgroups: A Study Among Turkish-Dutch Sunnis

This research focuses on religious subgroup evaluations by examining the attitude of Turkish-Dutch Sunni Muslims towards Alevi and Shiite Muslims. Following the Ingroup Projection Model, it was expected that Sunni participants who practice Islam will project their self-defining subgroup practices on the superordinate Muslim category, which will be related to more ingroup bias towards Alevis, a Muslim subgroup that performs different religious practices. Two studies yielded consistent evidence that practicing Islam increased ingroup bias towards Alevis. Furthermore, in Study 2, we found evidence that the effect of practicing Islam on ingroup bias was mediated by relative ingroup prototypicality (RIP). Moreover, practicing Islam did not affect RIP in relation to Shiites who perform the same religious practices that we examined. These findings support the Ingroup Projection Model.
